Harris hires a hu

No matter how many times Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz calls the Republican ticket “weird,” nothing can top the weirdness, or even perversity, of the Left’s fetish for pronoun prolixity .

Most ordinary people would be baffled by the Harris for President’s job application form for an associate producer/road media manager. It asks applicants to check a box choosing from among nine — count them, nine — different pronouns, from the standard “he/him” to “xe/xem,” “fae/faer,” and even “hu/hu.”

On the latter two, it might be fair to ask, “Huh?”

A friend of mine, upon seeing the list, missed the slash between the two “hu” entries, which apparently are the equivalent of “they” and “them,” although Emory University says they are closer to “you” and “who.” (Gee, hu knew?)

Anyway, “What’s a huhu?” my friend asked. Then she looked it up on the internet.

Well, if you are huhū in Hawaii , it means you are “angry, offended, indignant, mad, or scolding.” Yeah, that does describe a lot of lefties. Then again, if you are in China , a hu hu is a string instrument usually made of wood, snakeskin, fabric, glue, bamboo, and horsehair. Well, yes, public relations types can be thought of as snake-oil salesmen, but actual snakeskin isn’t usually a requirement. Either way, if it is something musical, can Horton hear a hu hu ?

Maybe that’s the wrong track: A single “hu” is a chocolatier . Or an online store .

No, no, no, that’s just not right, my friend says. She’s going with the Merriam-Webster dictionary definition . A “huhu,” she declares definitively, is “a large creamy white roundheaded grub that is the larva of a yellowish brown New Zealand beetle.”

Well, it may seem rather strange for someone to want a pronoun “identifying” oneself as a roundheaded larva, but to each hu’s own. The only question, if it’s not “racist” to ask, is whether the self-identified larval being is a bright, shiny white or a sort of off-white, one of a different hue.
